Killingworth Vital Records pg. 79
GRISWOLD MARGARET w. Edward d: 23 Aug 1670

This grave site is reportedly the oldest in the Old First Church (Indian River) Cemetery. Marked only with "M.G. 1670", it is believed to be the burial place of Margaret Griswold, wife of Killingworth (now Clinton) settler Edward Griswold. Serveral birth surnames have been posited for Margaret, most frequently HICKS and BLENCOW, but all have been discredited in family literature.
